Solomon in 1kg 8:56 is recounting how God has fulfilled every of the promise he made to his people through Moses, though generations has passed yet,the word of God was fulfilled. I am reminded that once I am certain God has said something to me, delay isn't denial. His words cannot fail, even if it doesn't look like it right now, I am rest assured that since He always fulfills his word ,it will come to pass in His time
